+ just wanted to add to this thread... originally I having
asked for info on live-CDs including XaraLX.
I did download and try "Vector Linux" yesterday, or I
should say, downloaded and burned this to CD... but
"Vector Linux" does not indeed appear to be a Live-CD,
rather, a very compact, one-disk form of Linux requiring
installation to hard disk. This could be good, but for those
seeking a Live-CD format, this distribution does not appear
to fit that category.

cheers
